Garden centers frequently use plastic labels roughly 1/2 - 3/4 inch wide
and anywhere from 4 to 6 inches long with a pointed end on the bottom and a
rounded end on the top. I've managed to borrow them or recycle them. But
a local garden center is selling them for 3, 4 and 5 cents per label.
Something tells me I could do better than that.
Does anyone know of a source for purchasing a box of these?

Les,
I get mine at Macore Company. The ones I get are 5/8" x 5". They carry
two grades of vinyl. I get the better grade (PVC 20) as they are supposed to
last indefinitely. I believe the cost is around $15.00 per thousand. They
take credit cards so are very easy to order from.
